Not exactly what you've seen, but I've noticed with JAWS 10 that after some extended length of time JAWS will stop automatically reading the highlight when I switch from the folder list to the message list. Usually JAWS will speak the highlight item and say "selected" but when it gets "tired" it will say nothing. If I arrow up/down it speaks, so only partially asleep. Happens only with JAWS 10. Anyone else see this and have a remedy?

As I write an email or response in Outlook Express, jaws becomes increasingly sluggish over time. By this I mean that the echo of what I'm typing gets slower an slower. I can wait for it which is maddening or type a sentence ahead of the jaws echo. This has been the case in versions 9 and 10, maybe even 8. It baffles FS tech support which is always looking at the display options. They seem ok. I'd be grateful for anything you can offer. I should note that it does, on occasion, happen in Word. Thanks, Jeff
